Seemingly increasing numbers of titles year by year... but due to what? Over-complication? Declining skill levels? Something else?
Probably because of the lack of standardization of what to call someone, even though many of the responsibilities overlap quite a bit. It's not like the medical or law fields where there are widely-accepted credentials.
I once had job title of "Digital Platform Manager", which was a very fancy way of saying "Web developer" with a couple other small, non-coding responsibilities.
